I was one who witnessed year 2014 in Lugansk (its the Donbas area). Lived in basement with parents for almost 6 months , while our own army were shelling my city own citizens own land. Before 2014 it was a normal county , but when the U.S. made revolution and installed their puppet government , things quickly went downhill . in spring 2014 , many regions of eastern ukr didn't accept the new government in Kiev. Poroshenko new US approved ukr president said, that Donetsk , Lugansk , Kharkov are controlled by terrorists and declared anti terrorist military operation. Personally for me war started in 2 of June of 2014 , was a warm summer day , i was in park trying to skate with my friends. First time i heard echoes of explosions , Kiev send Jet airplane to bring down our Lugansk city administration . I heard far explosions. People started talking military airplane bombed us! Had to describe , but will never forget this rush of adrenalin. My parents didn't want to go anywhere. I stayed with them. 6 month in basement with them and 12 other people from our apartment building , no water no electricity , food and water from humanitarian aid . every other day was coming truck with water and food. Ukr artillery were purposefully targeting this water trucks. Deamons! But the worst was not knowing what is going to happen. We hoped that Russia would come and put peace keeping forces. , but they didn't , many of us felt betrayed. Russia negotiated Minsk peace treaty agreement.

Countries do not have 'friends' and most barely have allies. Countries have interests they pursue through force and diplomacy. Some guy in a shed likened international politics to a large poker game where everyone is cheating. Seems like a good metaphor to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The US and Europe aren't the ones suffering directly so they will probably never admit the mistake. They will just blame Ukraine for corruption and incompetence for losing the war. The real question is, "At what point will Ukraine admit it was an awful mistake to be used as a proxy to serve someone else's interests?"
In siege warfare, less soldiers can hold out a larger force. In order to take the objective, you need 4 to 1 or a 5 to 1 advantage. Unfortunately, that's what Russia has at the moment.
@@williamalfonso1373 No. No, you absolutely do not. People really need to stop repeating this myth/talking point. That is a *WWII* small unit infantry *guideline* for assaulting prepared positions, ie pillboxes and bunkers; and has more to do with angles and continuity of fire, than it does numbers or firepower. Thats it. Thats all there is to it. And its been proven irrelevant over and over and over and over again, with improved tactics and higher capacity individual weapons; for example a 30 rd magazine fed assault rifle fires 3x times longer and reloads 30% faster than a clip fed battle rifle, so you only need 1/3 of the numbers to maintain the same continuity of fire.
3:47 So the Ukrainian forces can use high-rise civilian buildings as "looks outs and posts to shoot from" then when the Russian shoots back at these targets you guys claim that Russians are shooting at civilians? 🤣🤣🤣
DW changing its tune😂😂😂 great mother Russia🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺 when Russia moves those kids out of the way in Pokrovsk. The west will claim Russia is kidnapping them😂
One of the dispatches by another source said that the Ukrainians are happy to use the main highways used by civilians fleeing Pokrovsk to bring their men and equipment from other regions and Kursk, because they know the Russians will not attack those highways - at least for now when the civilians are fleeing.
All of this could had been avoided if only we the United States of terror didn't provoke Russia & the Russian population in Donbass all the way back in 2014 when we overthrow helped ukr legit government
This is not the same case as other major battles.. The moment pokrovsk is at range, any movement will targeted by drones, any infantry concentration will rain FABs and equipment concentration will be visited by kinzal/kalibr.. This city won't make it next year
Nick Connolly is the king of cope! It’s a wonder he’s been able to stay in Ukraine and come up with new excuses for Ukrainian losses over and over. He must have some nasty nightmares with a conscience like his.
Russia is no hurry. They have been grinding the Ukrainians at every strategic and tactical position. They took Solidar and Bakhmut & those were tough battles. Good to see that realisation is finally setting in amongst these Western "experts". What the US, Western Europe and NATO tried to do to Russia was absolutely CRIMINAL.
There is no insight from the kiev correspondent.much of what he has said can be gotten from the government website.objectivity appears to be very painful on such stories
Ukraine is in the buisness of "More Money, More Credit" once they get that, they do a little PR show. Meanwhile Russia, if you look at their history, they always play the long game..
Weapons are no substitute to motivated manpower. World's largest military with over $750bn defense budget could not help US win the war in Afghanistan. Its NATO allies under Article 5 also couldn't prevent its defeat & ignominious expulsion from Afghanistan. Ukraine can not win this war because Zelensky is fighting US proxy war & Russia is fighting war of its existence to prevent NATO from reaching its most susceptible warmer border with Ukraine through which Russia has seen massive invasions every century losing 2.5 million men in WW2 alone. This war has now only one end result: Destruction & division of Ukraine like North & South Korea. EU will face negative consequence.
@@gbhatia9809 Uh. . . NATO is now a couple dozen kilometers of St. Petersburg, I'm pretty sure Russia doesn't perceive bordering NATO as an actual threat.

Countries do not have 'friends' and most barely have allies. Countries have interests they pursue through force and diplomacy. Some guy in a shed likened international politics to a large poker game where everyone is cheating. Seems like a good metaphor to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
US and their little bro UK are what they are and no one is friend or ally
Why does Germany need friends when they’re a obedient and willing dog for America?
Surprisingly Russia advancing with their primitive washing machines against top notch combined NATO machinery
You guys don't get tired lying to yourselves?
Nope! They get paid to lie
You are not supposed to report in Germany about Ukraine loosing war and getting wiped out. Dying for Germans
At what point with the US and Europe admit that they have made an awful mistake? That pushing NATO to within an 8 hour drive to Moscow was a bad idea and that economies and millions of people have suffered?
The US and Europe aren't the ones suffering directly so they will probably never admit the mistake. They will just blame Ukraine for corruption and incompetence for losing the war. The real question is, "At what point will Ukraine admit it was an awful mistake to be used as a proxy to serve someone else's interests?"
It will fall just like bakhmut or avdiivka. Russia has 50k soldiers on that direction, ukraine 12k
In siege warfare, less soldiers can hold out a larger force. In order to take the objective, you need 4 to 1 or a 5 to 1 advantage. Unfortunately, that's what Russia has at the moment.
Well then Ukraine has the obvious advantage with their 100:1 casualty ratio.
@@springbloom5940 Ukraine can't win this period !

No. No, you absolutely do not. People really need to stop repeating this myth/talking point. That is a *WWII* small unit infantry *guideline* for assaulting prepared positions, ie pillboxes and bunkers; and has more to do with angles and continuity of fire, than it does numbers or firepower. Thats it. Thats all there is to it. And its been proven irrelevant over and over and over and over again, with improved tactics and higher capacity individual weapons; for example a 30 rd magazine fed assault rifle fires 3x times longer and reloads 30% faster than a clip fed battle rifle, so you only need 1/3 of the numbers to maintain the same continuity of fire.
@@springbloom5940 you play too much CoD. Keep on dreaming, UA is LOST.
This doesn't sound like part of Zelesnky's victory plan.
Disabling its logistic function in the conflict is more relevant than actually controlling the city itself.
Happy to see Russia advancing. Support from Canada
Russia has defeated the collective west economically, strategically, military
3:47 So the Ukrainian forces can use high-rise civilian buildings as "looks outs and posts to shoot from" then when the Russian shoots back at these targets you guys claim that Russians are shooting at civilians? 🤣🤣🤣
DW changing its tune😂😂😂 great mother Russia🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺 when Russia moves those kids out of the way in Pokrovsk. The west will claim Russia is kidnapping them😂
@@SAapproves They are, they separate them from their parents and spread them out around Russia. That's a war crime known as genocide.
When the city is taken it will have no strategic value 😂
It is a shame how Russia is winning against NATO in Ukraine.
Winning, how?
One of the dispatches by another source said that the Ukrainians are happy to use the main highways used by civilians fleeing Pokrovsk to bring their men and equipment from other regions and Kursk, because they know the Russians will not attack those highways - at least for now when the civilians are fleeing.
Remember Bakhmut? if there is a cabinet reshuffle, then pokrovsk will be gone within a month at best. They are setting someone up to take the blame.
Peace agreement avoided by Nato´s leaders would have stopped this sad situation since two years ago
Why is it not likely for the Russian to take control of Pokrovsk? They have taken one city after another...?
All of this could had been avoided if only we the United States of terror didn't provoke Russia & the Russian population in Donbass all the way back in 2014 when we overthrow helped ukr legit government
This is not the same case as other major battles.. The moment pokrovsk is at range, any movement will targeted by drones, any infantry concentration will rain FABs and equipment concentration will be visited by kinzal/kalibr.. This city won't make it next year
Nick Connolly is the king of cope! It’s a wonder he’s been able to stay in Ukraine and come up with new excuses for Ukrainian losses over and over. He must have some nasty nightmares with a conscience like his.
His head look like a grape thats wearing a helmet lol
Russia is no hurry. They have been grinding the Ukrainians at every strategic and tactical position.
They took Solidar and Bakhmut & those were tough battles.
Good to see that realisation is finally setting in amongst these Western "experts".
What the US, Western Europe and NATO tried to do to Russia was absolutely CRIMINAL.
There is no insight from the kiev correspondent.much of what he has said can be gotten from the government website.objectivity appears to be very painful on such stories
Iskander is such a beautiful name!
The Russian shovels are upgraded with washing machine chips. Pokrovosk is gone... next
Finally admitting the significance of pakrovsk huh? Wow. Whats the deal? Couldnt hide it any longer?
kursk offensive is stuck.
We were told this war started in 02/22😅😅😅😅
How do soldiers trust politicians and trade it with their own lives?
😂😂😂ukraine fools lost big chance for a better deal in Istanbul😂😂😂
Do not crush the heroic force,
Our fire barrier is mighty,
And our enemy will find the grave
In the misty fields near Kursk.
Россия вперёд🇷🇺💪💪💪. Ураааааа 💪💪💪💪🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
Thats the same situation like mariupol and bakhmuth . Lost cities for ever
Ukraine is in the buisness of "More Money, More Credit" once they get that, they do a little PR show.
Meanwhile Russia, if you look at their history, they always play the long game..
It will inevitably fall.... maybe in a few months or in a year..
8 to 10 miles means within artillery range , and it’s not good considering Russian fire power
Weapons are no substitute to motivated manpower. World's largest military with over $750bn defense budget could not help US win the war in Afghanistan. Its NATO allies under Article 5 also couldn't prevent its defeat & ignominious expulsion from Afghanistan. Ukraine can not win this war because Zelensky is fighting US proxy war & Russia is fighting war of its existence to prevent NATO from reaching its most susceptible warmer border with Ukraine through which Russia has seen massive invasions every century losing 2.5 million men in WW2 alone. This war has now only one end result: Destruction & division of Ukraine like North & South Korea. EU will face negative consequence.
@@gbhatia9809 Uh. . . NATO is now a couple dozen kilometers of St. Petersburg, I'm pretty sure Russia doesn't perceive bordering NATO as an actual threat.
You live in a fantasy world. NATO counties have had boarders with Russia for years.
Ryt
Yeah, budget is one thing, corruption is another thing. High budget with high corruption is nothing.
Zelensky has said recently that the Kursk offensive is a big success and that Ukraine is winning, so it's just a matter of some time until a full Russian defeat, right?
